Features: Once you enter Tibet, you can never truly leave it. Over 30 years, I have returned to Tibet time and time again, each visit leaving me with profound insights and lingering memories. During those quiet office days, whenever I had a moment, I would embark on a journey in my mind's yak boat, drifting through the long river of Tibet's history and reality.

In today's world, Tibet is a hot topic—many talk about Tibet, many write about Tibet—the history, culture, religion, of course, as well as the landscapes, tourism, and local customs. But how many truly understand Tibet? Just like Mount Everest, everyone knows it's the world's highest peak, but how many have actually seen it? The stories we will share about Tibet may differ from the images people imagine or read about. That is, my Tibet.
